[Reader-list] the number 500

[sam de silva]

hey

sorry to post this sort of thing but i wonder if anyone can assist with my 
query :) 

i am exploring the whole 'bhopal - rtmark - thing - money for thing - justice 
for bhopal victims - fight freedom of speach' thing and noticed on one of 
the 'infoparady' sites - http://www.mad-dow-disease.com/ 

at the bottom of the home page is this tag:

"This parody web site is brought to you by Greenpeace and the letters B-H-O-P-A-
L and the number 500 (plenty good for an Indian)."

i am just wanting to know if the number 500 is infact 'plenty good for an 
indian' and if so, why is it so?

many thanks, sam :)

ps. also, i'd like to know - are there any big campaigns happening out of india 
about the situation with bhopal and the recent dow position... i seem to be 
able to find only references at the infoparady sites and greenpeace...
